Cadbury Creme Egg White Chocolate Mini Cheesecakes

Cadbury Creme Eggs would surely have to be one of the most popular Easter eggs. There is just something about them. While I do love Creme Eggs, I find the ordinary sized eggs to be a little on the big side; they are way too sweet for me to eat in one go. That’s why I love the mini Creme Eggs. They still have the taste of the large eggs, but in a much smaller version.

I picked up a bag of mini Creme Eggs and decided to turn the bag into a delicious Easter treat. That’s how these Cadbury Creme Egg White Chocolate Mini Cheesecakes came about.

These cheesecakes are made with my never-fails, no-bake white chocolate cheesecake recipe. I made the basic cheesecake mixture, then folded through half the packet of roughly chopped Creme Eggs. Once the mini cheesecakes had set, I topped each cheesecake with half of a mini Creme Egg.

I didn’t plan on originally topping the mini cheesecakes with caramel sauce. I wanted to add a little extra colour to the cheesecakes ready to photograph them so I drizzled the cheesecakes with some caramel sauce I already had in the fridge, but it turns out the drizzle of caramel sauce finishes off the cheesecakes perfectly. They taste amazing!
